God Bless
Gay was an amazing woman, a wonderful friend and a terrific golfer! We miss her already.
Gay was my very best and dearest friend and I miss her so much already. We have been friends since they moved down the street from us on Canyon Creek Drive in the early 1970’s. We have traveled together, gone to movies and concerts at the Meyerson together, laughed, cried and shared confidences together for all those years and I will always remember her with love.
Gay was my best and dearest friend and I am missing her already. My prayers are with Jerry and all their family. May our Heavenly Father comfort them.
I was privileged to meet Gay in our “First Friday Bridge Group.” She was a lovely person and will be missed.
Our deepest sympathies to the Schleicher family. She was a great friend to my mom and our family.
